No Power, No Game

Hi Folks,

We tried again to find an appropriate generator for our TV truck, but again we had no luck.  We encourage you to listen to tonight's game on WNPV 1440 am or on their website at http://www.wnpv1440.com/

We are already looking for a generator in the case that we move again next week. Stay tuned!!!

The TV gods are crazy

Late Thursday afternoon, we found out the North Penn Football Playoff game vs. Council Rock North was moved to the new Souderton High School Stadium.  We surveyed the stadium early on Friday morning to find out if our truck could be placed close enough to the stadium, if our cables would reach, if there was enough room in the press box and if we could find power.  On the way over I was thinking that it was going to be improbable that all of these stars would align.  Sure enough, when we got the the Souderton staff was more than helpful in our survey.  It looked like our truck would fit through the gate, the cables would reach and there was more than ample room in the press box.  We did need to rent a generator.  We found one from a local rental company for a great price.  We gathered the troops and made the trip.  Even though the winds were howling, and the rain was misting we started our set-up.  Our generator arrived.  We fired it up.  Turned on the power.. then trip.  Reset the breaker.... trip.   move from 30 amp cicuit to 20 amp circuit. No Trip.  Turn on our equipment... trip. 

That's the tough thing about TV, no power, no TV.    We weren't happy about it, and we were looking forward to broadcasting from this beautiful new stadium, but sometimes decisions are made for you.  North Penn's own Kyle Berger is there at least broadcasting live for WNPV.

You can listen live at 1440 am or online http://www.wnpv1440.com/
